EVGA GeForce GTX260 SC 896MB

Features

• NVIDIA® unified architecture with GigaThread™ technology - GigaThread is a new technology that enables thousands of independent threads to execute in parallel inside of the graphics core. This delivers extreme processing efficiency in advanced, next-generation shader programs.
• Full Microsoft® DirectX® 10 Shader Model 4.0 support - Also known as the Unified Shader Model, the Vertex shaders, Geometry shaders, and Pixel shaders are combined in to one unified shader. Also backwards compatible with DirectX® 9.
• True 128-bit floating point high dynamic-range (HDR) - Allows you to experience cinematic, life like environments, for an amazing graphics experience.
• PCI Express 2.0 - Allows 500MB a lane or up to 8 GB/s at 16x speeds - allows for full support for new PCI-E 2.0 graphics cards.
• OpenGL 2.1 Optimizations and Support - Ensures top-notch compatibility and performance for all OpenGL applications
• Active Heatsink - Consists of a fan and metal heatsink.
• DVI-I Output - Digital Visual Interface – Integrated - supports both digital and analog signals.
• Dual Slot Design - Graphics Card takes up 2 slots on a motherboard.
• 2nd Generation Unified Shader Architecture - The latest in Unified Shader Architecture Technology, offering 50% more performance through 240 enhanced processing cores.
• NVIDIA® CUDA Support - Accelerates CUDA based applications through the GPU's proccessing power allowing for faster application performance such as video transcoding.
• NVIDIA® PhysX™- Ready - Enjoy more visual immersion with life like physics for a more dynamic experience.
• 2-Way SLI® Support - Feel free to turn up the eye candy and experience the performance of 2 Graphics Cards running together.
• 3-Way SLI® Support - Experience the amazing performance that only 3 Graphics Cards can deliver. A visual experience that will take you to the next level.
• NVIDIA® PureVideo® HD Technology - Smooth video, accurate colors, precise image scaling, video decode acceleration and post processing, all provided by the graphics card to give you the best HD experience possible. This feature also offloads from the CPU to help reduce power consumption.
• NVIDIA® Hybrid Power Technology - The latest in GPU power technology, when in an idle state, the GPU will draw minimal power, reduce fan noise, and temperature. When GPU processing power is needed, full power is restored, unleashing the GPU for full visual acceleration.
• 65nm Technology - The latest in GPU manufacturing, allows for less heat output and overall better performance.
